First of all, I am a student, and am NOT interested in doing any of this work myself.
Our venue has two company switches SR, one 400A, the other 150A. They are both 3 phase, and both have cam lock connectors.
For several rock concert-style shows we do, we simply run out of outlets for the onstage sound gear. I noticed that one show that came through (Up With People) used the bigger company switch to power their dimmer rack. So, I was wondering why we couldn't use the smaller one to power audio gear.
I do understand that anything connected to these switches would need to have it's own individual circuit protection. My question is this: Is there a type of distro made that is safe to use for this purpose for onstage audio equipment? Assume that there is a licensed electrician performing all connections and that all district regulations are followed. I only want to know if they make a distro suitable for this, I'm not asking how to do it because I would not be the one working with the tie-in.
